Reminder that tomorrow (Sunday April 13th), we will be holding our Community Conversation on School Funding in conjunction with the Amherst League of Women Voters. 2-4pm at Crocker Farm. Please enter via Shays Street Entrance (see attached map for parking location).
Over the past year, we have been told “NO” a lot
- No – The schools can’t have more money
- No – The Town can’t change anything about its budgeting process
- No – You can’t say that you feel Councilors don’t care about our kids because that’s “uncivil”
- No – You can’t say that education should be prioritized because that’s pitting one need against another
- No – You can’t have more than two minutes to make a public comment
On Sunday, we hope to move past some of these “NOs,” to talk about why we bump up against so much resistance, and how we can move forward. Join us! Bring a friend! Bring your kids – we will have kids activities and childcare available.
